The world’s first trillionaire is African.
Elon Musk was born in Pretoria, South Africa 🇿🇦 in 1971 and holds South African citizenship by birth, making him African by place of origin.
Let's make one thing clear: FBA is a lineage, not a movement. Even if it were called something else, you would still have a problem with it because you don't want Black Americans to have anything. Black Americans highlight their history and culture. You get offended
Pan-African people. It's frustrating to see you wrap yourselves in Africa, yet you don't want to live there. I'm American, and I represent one flag: 🇺🇸. I HAVE NO DUAL ALLEGIANCE.
If you are a Black American FBA (Foundational Black American), Freedman, etc., and you believe in Pan-Africanism, you should reconsider your priorities. It seems illogical to want to clean someone else's house while your own is dirty.
No hate intended, but it is essential to handle your own affairs first before taking care of others. Africa needs to address issues of corruption and tribalism. With 40 to 60 million Black Americans and 2 billion people in Africa, they do not necessarily need us to save them.
It is concerning to not want your people and your lineage to have anything, while wishing for someone from a different lineage to have everything. This perspective is troubling.
Africa needs its own delineation movement. Every time an African leader speaks sensibly, another African leader undermines him. The strong must delineate from the weak, be more like Black Americans, and work to eliminate tribalism. #Fba#wisdom
“Pan-African” but you spent the past week discrediting Black American culture to credit every other ethnicity in the diaspora. If your theology depends on acting like my culture is second class to everyone else you could choke in front of me and I’d livestream it
